@Bill Wagers

I would not do a contract for deed on a bar as you remain owner and thus could be liable for issues with the property

I would do it as a sale and seller finance the property so the estate is no longer on title

In that instance may not even need a LLC

Here's what I am considering brother passed away about 9 months ago I am his executor.i have sold all of his property except a bar be owns outright. It is currently closed. I have someone who wants to do a land contract sell price 500k 70 k non refundable down 2 year balloon 3500 month payment. 2000 principle 1500 interest 4% percent. I'm considering it since I haven't gotten a sale yet problem is he has two heirs one is a minor. I know the interest they get is taxable I would probably have to set up a LLC with them being equal partners. Basically I'm going to have to run the LLC side of thing just not sure how to go about it

Quote from @Matt Devincenzo:

Unfortunately he's correct...any funds you keep are profit first, then basis. It's too bad no one shared this with you during the transaction since several people involved with the deal surely knew this requirement.

For sure that will cost me 37k

Ok so I sold a property for 1,050,000 cost basis was 175 exchanged for another property for 860k. I was thinking my capital gain would only be 15k. Accountant says I will owe tax on the whole 190k I got back. Man I hope he's wrong that was a costly mistake if not. I was thinking my cost basis 175k would come off the 190k I got back
